December 2019: Healthy & Happy Holidays

The holidays can be a time of joy, happiness, and gratitude. On the flip side they can also be very stressful with having to buy gifts, prepare meals, and attend gatherings. It is easy to be become overwhelmed during the holidays. This holiday season I am challenging you to take care of yourself so that you can be happy, beat the holiday stress, and be the best version of yourself as we move into the new year!

Keep Balanced Through the Holidays:

1. Keep Moving – fitting exercise into your day will give you an energy boost, help you de-stress and help you sleep better

2. Keep Relaxed – take time to yourself: go for a walk, read a book, meditate

3. Keep in Moderation – it is unrealistic to avoid treats during the holidays; instead, try fresh fruit for example - as a sweet substitute for candy or a second-helping of pie

4. Keep it Light – practice laughter as medicine and have fun with family and friends

5. Keep Up to Date – be sure to check your supply of prescriptions, medications, and vitamins whether you are traveling to visit family or hosting

6. Keep Clean – don’t forget to wash your hands often as germs can be passed easily
